karma has nothing to do with money, in fact it usually works the other way. As far as "we have you to thank" whatever for..... You have me (and that crew of 12 people) to thank for adult affilliate programs, the mouse trap, the popup, the disabled back button, and recurring billing, and most other nasty tricks in internet marketing. I decided to check out who owns sheruinedmylife.com and its the same company I worked with under a different name. Not trying to be defensive, but 90% of the methods that are being used today were created by the porn biz. Just trace it back, or don't, its xpics publishing...Old dogs will remember the name.
ps. congress isnt shutting down any website, especially not one about who's the biggest slut at kappa delta douche.
Probably shouldn't have even responded, but I'm drunk, really drunk.. statistically speaking - from a marketing perspective, women are a much more challenging market, and anything that has to do with being married and miserable is going to be almost completely male.
There are several sites that cater to women, but unless you're going to go up against ivillage (which you cant and never will be able to) don't bother. The best way to catch women is with domain parking.
I have the luxury of many years in high dollar web marketing, a college education, and a predominantly female family. I am from a college town that seems to be dominated by lesbians, feminists and well informed women. Just the domain married and miserable is going to be almost 100% male.
Controversy is not the instant bank it used to be, its borderline passe. Forget being a nice guy for a moment even if you are. marriedandmiserable.com is a decent domain but its got to grab them instantly or they wont come back.
User generated content - people talking about what a bitch their wives are is a one shot deal. Guys are not into communicating excessively, they like to talk about what a snatch their wives are for a short time, but there is no real loyalty there. Who wants to read about how other guys wives suck day after day. Give them a place to voice a complaint and tell story once, then sidetrack them.
Trust me on this, the only people who want to return over and over to compare their stories and discuss, are women and gays, and if you're not either, don't bother because both can spot frauds a mile away.
Let them get it out of their system then offer then let them go on their way.
I know why my girlfriend makes me mad, I don't care if you can relate. Men are social to a point, but they are not communal when it comes to emotions.
Honestly I don't even remember what I typed because I am so drunk, but trust me: offer them a way out, a solution, or a distraction.
Probably shouldn't have responded to this, but trust me I know. Married and Miserable is not looking for a solution or friends, they are most likely trapped.
This post took me too long to type so Ill end it here. Let them bitch (user content) then offer them a temporary respite from a nagging wife, if you're going to offer adult content make sure its something they feel is accessible.
Work with generalities and remember, the average person doesnt spend the amount of time online that you do.
whatever .. Im back on the bottle.. but my genius is available for hire.
Get the new CD by the black angels or black mountain and call me if your in Milwaukee
